Italy government approves school burqa and niqab ban and 30% language cap
Italy’s government approved a decree banning full-face coverings in schools and capping pupils with limited Italian at 30% per class. The measure took effect immediately but requires parliamentary scrutiny within 60 days; critics say it targets a very small group, estimated at 500–600 female students.
